About Us

For the past ten years, Saborea Puerto Rico has been the culinary highlight event of the year, synonymous with world-class cooking, and has continued to position Puerto Rico as the Culinary Capital of the Caribbean. This year Saborea Puerto Rico gains even more significance, since we are opening our touristic and cultural offering to the world after the recent natural event that impacted our Island.
